My abstract practice is grounded in my experience of synaesthesia, where sound, sensation and internal vision translate into visual form. Drawing on philosophical and scientific theories related to synaesthesia, I explore how these themes intersect with perception, aiming to engage viewers in a deeper understanding of sensory interactions. My work evolves through an intuitive, process-driven approach, where sensory input guides the use of materials and techniques such as laser cutting, airbrush, drawing, and oil painting. This experimental method reflects the spirit of the Bauhaus and other 20th-century movements, where art, technology, and sensory experience intersect. I view the pieces as passages to oneself—gateways into the internal landscape of perception. I aim to create a perceptual journey, where the active interplay of colours engages not just the eye, but the senses as a whole—offering an experience that transcends the visual to explore the very nature of perception itself. Through layered, multimedia compositions, I seek to make visible the complexity—and therapeutic resonance—of multi-sensory experience.
